AD misses his Buddha KongKong!

Photo was taken last year and this was the most updated one. I’m sorry forgot to take our photos when we had dinner at Cucina Gayuma.  Totally slipped my mind…

This is Where…

Saturday, November 8th, 2008

Actually, the sentence should have been…

This is near where I parked my car when I went to Divisoria.  Golden Fortune is along Soler St.  and there’s a pay parking near, right in front of PSBank.  I was bringing my car ALONE for the very first time.  I am not an expert around downtown so I had to ask a friend of mine where I can safely park my car and she pointed me here….

Golden Fortune

Too bad, it was not the night where my HB and his friends had dinner because I would just be in time for that dinner.  I arrived around 9am and left before 8pm.  Talk about being obsessed with Divisoria!  There’s so much to find there but so little time!  Everytime I go there, the time flies soooo fast that I dread of going home hahaha AND schedule another trip back (w/c usually takes me months before I can go back nowadays…with 2 kids! Pffttt!).

I don’t usually bring my car to Divisoria but I had to buy these heavy stuff and no way will I carry those load by myself!  So, I had no choice but to bring my own car but to tell you honestly, it is much better to just commute especially this holiday season where traffic is at peak at all times.

Have you been to Divisoria?  How do you go there and where do you go?

I would usually go to 168 mall but before 168, I’ve been a regular at Divi Mall which is just a walking distance from 168.   I buy anything I fancy but you have to check its quality before you buy.  There’s so much I have yet to discover…I have yet to spend a day with my SIL because she is the expert around Divisoria!

So, what about you?

Labor Of My Love

Friday, November 7th, 2008

For the past months, I’ve been travelling locally with my HB.  The trips would usually take 3-4 days away from the kids (woohoo, honeymoon! hahaha).  This is the first time ever events that I left AD for more than 2 days and with JX too.  With JX, this is totally a different matter.  I had never left AD for more than a day when he was still a baby!  And look what I’ve been doing with JX.  I’ll share with you (in another post) how bad a mom I am to JX.

But no matter how far I am, I do not forget the kids especially JX because I get engorged!  I know, I know, it is not a nice word but that’s the term when one is nursing her baby so pardon me, my friends.  For non-nursing friends out there, engorge is a term when nursing moms do not get to feed or pump out the milk out of their breast for several hours, in short, my breasts get swollen or to be blunt, gets BIG (wowee! Only time when I get a nice looking plump booby!).  So what do I do?  I bring out my best friend out of its hiding place!
